Overview

"Lomatta" ... A Mid-Century Original Ready for Its Next Chapter

Architect designed by the esteemed Briggs, Peterson & Burnett, "Lomatta" is a distinctive example of mid-century modernism. Set on a near level 607sqm block in an outstanding pocket of The Gap, it presents a rare opportunity for buyers with an appreciation of architectural heritage and the vision to restore it. Light and airy interiors reveal a considered simplicity. Original blockwork, pared-back detailing and floor-to-ceiling glazing reflect an approach grounded in simplicity and restrained design. Generous living and dining spaces connect with a side courtyard and established greenery, while extensive glazing brings natural light into the home throughout the day. Offering three bedrooms plus a home office, two bathrooms and flexible open-plan living, the residence has scope to be reimagined for contemporary life while preserving its original character. The oversized main bedroom includes an adjoining retreat that could serve as a fourth bedroom, while the home office has its own entry. Substantial restoration is required, including a new roof. Plumbing and hot water system upgrades have been completed, providing a starting point for the next owner's plans. Positioned in a quiet, leafy part of The Gap, "Lomatta" is a stroll from parkland at the end of the street, with village shops, schools and city transport nearby. This is an opportunity to give a remarkable architectural home its next chapter while honouring the vision that shaped it. - Three bedrooms plus a home office | two bathrooms | carport - Spacious, flexible open-plan living with a potbelly fireplace - Living and dining areas opening to a side courtyard - Original kitchen with adjoining butler's pantry and laundry - Near-level backyard with room to create the ultimate outdoor retreat - Oversized master bedroom with original ensuite, courtyard access and adjoining retreat or optional fourth bedroom - Home office with independent entry - Original blockwork, floor-to-ceiling glazing and polished timber floors - Feature lighting and air conditioning - Upgraded plumbing and hot water system - Significant restoration potential in a sought-after pocket of The Gap | RE/MAX Ignite | Profile has taken all reasonable steps to ensure the information contained in this advertisement is accurate and current at the time of publication; however, no responsibility is accepted and all liability is expressly disclaimed for any errors, omissions, inaccuracies, or misstatements.
